Bambrick is a major voice in Canadian jazz culture. She’s been a longtime on-air presence at JAZZ.FM91, and she’s earned national recognition for broadcasting, including a Canadian Radio Award for on-air hosting. That “everyone knows her” energy is genuine: plenty of the audience will have heard her before they ever saw her.
Musically, she’s also the real deal on paper: JUNO-nominated, with multiple ECMA-nominated solo recordings, and widely respected by top Canadian players. The key point is range — jazz standards, pop re-imaginings, and East Coast material — delivered with humour and an entertainer’s timing. It’s the rare combination of premium musicianship and pure joy. We can't wait for Ancaster to experience her energy, stories, and vocal ability live! As always, Heather will be backed by an equally talented and storied band. The perfect addition to our running series, bringing professional Jazz artists to Ancaster.
You leave lighter than you walked in. That’s her whole approach to performing, and it’s why audiences keep talking about her after the last note.
